REMEMBERING THE GREAT WAR: AUTOBIOGRAPHY, FICTION, AND METAFICTION
Este trabalho estuda relatos escritos da Primeira Guerra Mundial (1914-1918) atravĂ©s de uma anĂĄlise da classificação do gĂȘnero e as estratĂ©gicas narrativas usadas por escritores clĂĄssicos e contemporĂąneos britĂąnicos e canadenses. Verifica-se que as narrativas mais recentes incluem muitos temas importantes da literatura clĂĄssica bem como outros novos, de acordo com as mudanças sociais que tem ocorrido desde entĂŁo. Na metodologia, os relatos contemporĂąneos mostram diferenças significativas da obra clĂĄssica, uma vez que aquelas tratem da questĂŁo de que como um evento que nĂŁo se lembre mais possa ser recuperado ou reconstruĂdo
Involving the Introductory Student of Folklore in the Functional Analysis of the Material He Collects
Mental illness is different and ignoring its differences profits nobody
Szmukler, Daw and Dawson have produced a detailed and carefully worded proposal for a new approach fusing mental health and capacity legislation. In practice their proposal abolishes separate mental health legislation. It aims to ensure that compulsory care for the mentally ill is provided, when needed, according to the same principles as in severe disabling physical disorders (e.g. toxic confusion states, acute head injury, dementia). Their proposal derives from two strongly held and clearly presented principles â respect for the autonomy of the psychiatric patient and removal of what they consider the stigmatising discrimination between mental and physical illness. Capacity becomes the threshold for considering any compulsory detention or treatment
ALLEGORICAL NARRATIVES OF THE VIETNAM WAR
In this article, three novels of the mid-1970s, published at the end of the Vietnam War â Jonathan Rubinâs The Barking Deer (1974), Joe Haldemanâs The Forever War (1975), and Robert Stoneâs Dog Soldiers (1974) - are analyzed as examples of allegorical narrative, whose theoretical aspects are initially discussed. It is argued that the peculiarities of the Vietnam War (morally and politically suspect and even militarily ambiguous) made some authors attempt to represent it indirectly and obliquely through varied narrative strategies like allegory and fantasy, rather than the realism of classic war narratives
